I would be leery of that. Sounds like a scam setup maybe.

??   I just thought the gay “dudes” we’ve started seeing lately gave the wrong address.  We’ve only been getting magazines.  Is that a thing?

I would be curious as to why someone 'accidentally' used my address with their name more than once. It could be nothing, but in this day and age you never know.

I agree with you there.  Once, okay...twice...that’s a different story.  It does come off as curious.  I just don’t know how a scam would work by sending mags.

I checked my county’s property appraiser site to see if the last name matched anyone on my street.  I didn’t see the last name (but there could be renters).  So I still don’t know.  But (I kid you not) I did see a last name of “Buttram”.  I’m 120% serious about that.  Insert (haha) your own joke.  Even if I’m being scammed, that made my day.   But I am a bit concerned now, thanks HB.

I keep getting People Magazine delivered to my house.  Address is right but has some other guys name on it.  I told my wife, whoever these are meant for is definitely (I forgot the words I used for homosexual).  She being the nice one says “you don’t know that”.  I assured her I did.  But today, I got another magazine.  Addressed to the same name as the people magazine and still my address.  This one is “Instyle” magazine.  I’m going to assume I’m right.

We'll know for sure if you get Out of the Closet next month.

I wasn’t privy to the fact there was a magazine called that.  What’s it about?

LOL.  Sorry, not a subject I have any knowledge of.  There's probably a website with more information if you're............curious.

No manual transmission, so not so noice.

The Double Clutch Transmission is so much more efficient and quick at making shifts. But I get you. It would be nice to be able to row through the gears with that much power underneath.

At straight line speed, yes. Heel to toeing in an manual in the curves is different. A properly operated manual will always  be superior to a manual transmission. That said, the automatic will be more consistent. Make one mistake in the manual, and it's over.

Better let Formula 1 in on that.

If you google that information in the local community it just brings you to duvalpride.com...according to a friend...

Point taken, though I'd argue those transmissions are elite. I don't know, maybe I'm the old man shouting at the clouds. But I wouldn't drive anything but a manual transmission.

Question for Rico, or anyone else suitably knowledgeable about carpentry. I'm replacing hallway globe lights with flush mounted LEDs. However, after removing the fixture for one I discovered it was mounted directly under a joist. There isn't enough room to fit the LED mount within the shallow cavity created by the ceiling sheetrock. 

Question: Is it safe to notch the joist a couple of inches?

I always follow Tom Silva's (of This Old House) mantra. If you remove any support, add back support. I would sister a 1x4 or 2x4 alongside the joist where you notch out because I'm slightly definitely paranoid about support. We're having an issue with some floor joists that we're notched so a plumbing pipe would go under, not through, them. I didn't know my husband didn't add support back until I noticed the floor was bowing some.

Makes sense. A buddy of mine recommended the same thing. I was hoping to avoid it because my "attic" is a pain to navigate. It has blow-in insulation between and over the joists so finding sure footing is a challenge. Then I'll have to clear the stuff out to nail in the support and deal with the itch and irritation the rest of the day. 

It's a ceiling joist so it won't have to deal with any additional load like a flooring joist, but to be on the safe side it's probably best to add support. *sigh*
